Following growing criticisms of the "Joe Rogan Experience" podcast and
its COVID-19 discussions, Spotify announced Sunday it will be adding
content advisories to podcast episodes that discuss the coronavirus.

According to The Verge, the advisory would link to the platform’s
COVID-19 hub, which contains up-to-date information about the pandemic.
In an effort to "combat misinformation," the platform will also be
making its COVID-19 content policy and general platform rules publicly
available on its site, saying any content creator who breaks the rules
may have the content removed, and repeated violations could result in
account suspension or banning.

According to the policy obtained by The Verge, Spotify prohibits content
that says "AIDS, COVID-19, cancer or other serious life threatening
diseases are a hoax or not real." The platform also bans content that
encourages the public "to purposely get infected with COVID-19 in order
to build immunity" and doesn’t allow content that suggests vaccines "are
designed to cause death."
However, a line which is present in the internal document is not there
in the version available on Spotify's website, which prohibits
"Suggesting that wearing a mask will cause the wearer imminent,
life-threatening physical harm."
"You've had a lot of questions over the last few days about our platform
policies and the lines we have drawn between what is acceptable and what
is not," Spotify CEO Daniel Ek said in a blog post published Sunday.
"We have had rules in place for many years but admittedly, we haven’t
been transparent around the policies that guide our content more
broadly...Based on the feedback over the last several weeks, it’s become
clear to me that we have an obligation to do more to provide balance and
access to widely-accepted information from the medical and scientific
communities guiding us through this unprecedented time," the Spotify
executive added.

The move comes after numerous singers have pulled their music from the
platform in protest of Rogan's podcast, with criticism skyrocketing
after the popular podcaster had alleged mRNA vaccine creator Dr. Robert
Malone on as a guest.
Joni Mitchell announced on her website on Friday night that she was
removing her music, writing: "Irresponsible people are spreading lies
that are costing people their lives. I stand in solidarity with Neil
Young and the global scientific and medical communities on this issue."
"I am doing this because Spotify is spreading fake information about
vaccines – potentially causing death to those who believe the
disinformation being spread by them, Please act on this immediately
today and keep me informed of the time schedule," Neil Young wrote.

the U.S. & elsewhere is by rapidly ( http://bit.ly/RapidTestCOVID-19 )
finding out at any given moment, including even while on-line, who
among us are unwittingly contagious (i.e pre-symptomatic or
asymptomatic) in order to http://bit.ly/convince_it_forward (John
15:12) for them to call their doctor and self-quarantine per their
doctor in hopes of stopping this pandemic. Thus, we're hoping for the
best while preparing for the worse-case scenario of the Alpha lineage
mutations and others like the Omicron, Gamma, Beta, Epsilon, Iota,
Lambda, Mu & Delta lineage mutations combining via
slip-RNA-replication to form hybrids that render current COVID
vaccines/monoclonals/medicines/pills no longer effective.
Indeed, I am wonderfully hungry ( http://tinyurl.com/RapidOmicronTest

So how are you ?
...because we mindfully choose to openly care with our heart,
